Video: The Decemberists Cover Sugar

In the latest installment of the A.V. Club's "Undercover" video series, the Decemberists stopped by the A.V. Club's Chicago office to cover an early 90s classic: "If I Can't Change Your Mind", from Bob Mould's post-Hüsker Dü band Sugar. As frontman Colin Meloy explains in the video's introduction, the band actually goes in pretty deep with it, covering Mould's solo mix of the song, which appeared as a B-side on Sugar's "Helpless" single. For their cover, five Decemberists all play acoustic guitar, giving an already jangly song some serious extra jangle. Watch the video at the A.V. Club.

Side note: Mould himself recently stopped by "Undercover" to deliver his own take on "If I Can't Change Your Mind". Watch that here.
